It is now possible to restore youthful levels of hormones with prescription strength, plant derived, bio-identical compounds. With the aging process many of the balances and essential levels of hormones are lost, resulting in severe fatigue, depression, loss of muscle mass, progressive cardiovascular disease and declining sexual function. Specifically men and women in their 40’s experience significant decline in many aspects of their physical, mental, and emotional life. Many of these changes are linked to hormonal declines.
Testing is now available and performed to determine existing levels with the goal
of restoring balance to the affected systems. Basal metabolic rates are changed
with thyroid deficiency. Adrenal gland dysfunction produces changes
in electrolyte balances, energy, glucose metabolism, and cortisol. Insulin resistance
and obesity are evaluated. Correction can be accomplished with daily treatment offering
improved energy, vitality, restful sleep, increased lean muscle mass and enhanced
concentration. One can return to their previous levels of performance and life satisfaction.
Alternative treatments for hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, auto- immune disease
and cardiovascular disease are effective and practical.
Now with the help and guidance of an anti-aging physician, the educated, proactive individual can expect to live longer, happier and more productively than ever before. Take the next step. Discuss your individual needs with our staff at Biorestoration.
The psychological and emotional symptoms associated with Adult Growth hormone Deficiency (AGHD) include a reduced sense of well being, low energy, vitality, capacity for work, emotional changes (mood swings, anxiety, depression, and increased social isolation.) Important physical sign are increased body fat, especially around the waist, decrease in muscle mass and strength and thin, wrinkled, or prematurely aged skin. Other symptoms may consist of the following: Reduced cardiac performance, poor sleep, decreased muscle mass and strength, reduced sex drive and performance.
Aging takes place at a more rapid pace when growth hormone starts to decline. Your body then begins to deteriorate more rapidly. You tend to gain weight easily. You’re not as athletic. You tend to be more anxious and stressed. You become depressed more frequently. These are all signs that your hormone levels are in decline. Replacing your hormones to a more youthful level can significantly delay and arrest the aging process. Human Growth Hormone Replacement is usually achieved with regular injections of Sermorelin® or prescription grade HGH. NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS, SPRAYS OR CREAMS HAVE NOT BEEN SHOWN TO BE EFFECTIVE. DON’T WAIST YOUR HEALTH OR MONEY!
The bodies metabolic control primarily is a function of the hypothalmus, pituitary and the thyroid gland. Common symptoms of thyroid deficiency are: abnormal body temperature regulation (getting cold easily), easy weight gain, dry skin and dry hair, hair loss, constipation, severe fatigue, depression, brittle nails, infertility, irregular periods and fibromyalgia. Careful evaluation of thyroid function may include in addition to the above symptoms: basil body temperatures, Free T3, Free T4, reverse T3, thyroid antibodies and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). With this information thyroid balance can be restored symptoms greatly reduced and overall wellness and vitality achieved. Natural replacement including T4 and T3 is commonly used. If thyroid antibodies are present, protomorphogens (PMG) is recommended.
The Adrenal Gland produces a significant number of hormones which regulates blood pressure, sex hormones, the bodies response to stress, immune system integrity and affects on glucose metabolism. In many cases acute stress creates elevated cortisol and adrenalin levels which leads to hypertension, weight gain, immunological compromise and psychological changes (fight or flight reaction). As stress becomes chronic the adrenal loses its ability to produce significant prohormones such as: Pregnenolone and DHEA. Cortisol production is greatly reduced. The end result is chronic fatigue syndromes, fibromyalgia, weight gain, chronic infections, metabolic syndromes and low blood pressure. Blood tests and symptoms can establish these significant deficiencies and important supplements and medications can be given to restore hormonal balance.
As women mature changes are taking place which will greatly impact them for the rest of their lives. These changes usually arrive gradually but with great impact on their appearance, body composition (fat excess) skin, sexual interest and response, along with significant psychological change. Bones become less dense (osteoporosis) cancer risks increase, heart disease and stroke risks increase, metabolic disorders (elevated lipids and glucose) develop, and in total, diminished self confidence and physical ability occurs.
Testosterone is a principal androgen or male sex hormone. Even though testosterone is a "male sex hormone," it’s important to understand it also benefits women. Testosterone is secreted by the testes but is also synthesized in small quantities in the ovaries, adrenal glands, and placenta, usually from cholesterol.
Testosterone begins to decline in men at about age 30-40. Low testosterone has a number of negative effects on mental, sexual and physical health.
The diagnosis of low testosterone is made utilizing blood testing and a review of symptoms. Once a determination is made, the use of bioidentical hormone replacement is employed. CAUTION: TESTOSTERONE INJECTIONS AND PILLS ARE NOT THE BEST WAY TO REPLACE TESTOSTERONE AND MAY CAUSE ELEVATED ESTROGEN LEVELS AND GENITAL SHRINKAGE. It is essential that a well trained and experienced physician explains and outlines the proper proticol for hormone replacement.
Testosterone replacement can lead to a greater sense of well being, a delay of the aging process and a restoration of motivation, strength, stamina and sexual prowess. Replacement Therapy utililizes bio-identical hormone, estrogen blockers and gonad stimulators, followed by interval blood testing and symptom evaluation and lean body mass determinations.
